Nuclear Power Plant Budget
Limited resources in terms of dollars, manpower, time, political will, and so forth mean that assets are in competition for support. Economics and political agendas, plus cultural, psychological, legal, and other factors might also influence the allocation of scarce resources.Add the choices to this environment of competing interests, and select an allocation model that you would recommend to the governmental or corporate leader who you would hypothetically advise regarding your asset (Nuclear Power Plant). You may also assemble parts and pieces from different strategies depending on any variety of elements you must consider.The allocation model you choose and write about for this Week’s individual project may be 1 of the strategies Ted Lewis discusses, a combination of these models, or a strategy of your own design with or without elements from the other models. Be sure to include the following:-Be prepared to describe fully how your allocation model works.-Describe how it would apply for your assigned network or asset.-You must detail what it will mean in terms of concrete outcomes, or what resources will be applied to your asset or network.-Determine what impact it might have for other critical infrastructure priorities in your community or company.-Because you are an advisor to a leader, also discuss various ways the community or company might pay or offset these protection or resilience-enhancing measures.-You should be able to discuss and explain the rationale for any budget or resource allowances you use. This will require additional, comprehensive research. For example, if you discuss increased training for special responders, find out from your real-world community members or company what such training costs. Remember to think comprehensively, using the 360-degree view. If you are training 1 person for a week, what travel costs must be included? Is another person working the trainee’s shifts, and if so, are these hours overtime? What does that cost? How does the agency plan for training costs?Even hypothetical scenarios should have real-world facts and figures to draw upon. Provide and properly cite sources for budgets, measures, ideas, recommendations, and so forth that are drawn from external sources. Your report should be 2 pages, not including a title or reference page, and may include tables, graphs, lists, or whatever format you believe clearly delivers the basis for your allocation strategy.
